Broken Registry Item

Linda, on May 2, 2017 at 2:53 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 13

I received a gift from my registry that was mailed to my house but it arrived completely broken Smiley sad. Has this happened to anyone? Its from macys. Should I take it into the store to get it exchanged?

    I haven't had this happen but I would imagine they'd exchange it.

    Yes, I would. They will be able to verify that it was purchased off your registry and then should exchange it with no problem.

    Macy's will definitely let you return it.

    Yup, I had this happen. Called customer service and they sent me a replacement item.

    Yes. We actually ordered a nesting bowl set with lids from our own registry after the wedding and it arrived damaged. I also wasn't impressed with the overall quality and decided I didn't even want it anymore. I called customer service because it came without a packing slip and I didn't want to waltz into the store without some kind of packing slip showing it was an already purchased item. I explained the damage and that I wasn't sure I wanted to exchange it for the same item because aside from the damages I was disappointed with the item, and they emailed me a return shipping label so I could send it back and they will be mailing me a gift card equal to the full value of the item (even though we used our completion discount). I'm only getting a gift card because we paid with a gift card I received at one of my showers.

    I had this happen with a gift from Pottery Barn. No issues exchanging it.

    Yes, return it or exchange it. I wouldn't tell the person that sent it to you that it was broken though since it's not their fault and would make them feel bad.
